From the article:

An Illinois judge has released a long-concealed picture that shows two Chicago police officers posing over an unidentified black man in antlers while holding rifles as if he had been hunted.

The photo, which was given to police by federal prosecutors in 2013, was made public for the first time on Wednesday by Cook county Judge Thomas Allen. It was taken sometime between 1998 and 2003 at the Harrison police district station on the west side.

"McDermott, who asked the judge to keep the photo under seal, is appealing against his dismissal in court."

5. I WISH this would be a shock to my system, however Chicago had a police DUNGEON

a secret black ops site where they TORTURED people for decades!!! Where is the outrage!? Where was the M$M on the story? Right...wash away and get back to personalities and not issues.

Sorry, nothing surprises me anymore about our 'police state'...all I expect now is to hear worse and worse violations of civil rights.

8. I guess it really doesn't matter one way or the other but, honestly WTF was the black dude thinking?

I don't understand. Was the black man forced against his will to pose in this picture? WTF?

9. That is puzzling

Wonder if he was another officer, or someone who worked in the building.
